Configuring Subscriptions in Fermat
To configure subscriptions within the Fermat platform and enhance the appeal of your subscription offerings, follow these steps:
1. Select the Product
Begin by navigating to the specific product you want to update.
2. Access Subscription Settings
Go to Settings in the dashboard.
Select Subscription Settings to open the configuration options for subscriptions.
3. Configure Subscription Badge and Label
Badge Text: Add text that differentiates the subscription option. Options like “Most Popular” or “Best Value” can attract attention to the subscription as the preferred choice.
Badge Color: Set a color for the badge to make it stand out. This can be your brand color or another eye-catching shade.
Active Selection Color: Define the selection color to highlight the active subscription choice, making it easier for customers to see their choice.
4. Update Subscription Option Label
Under Subscription Option Label, choose a name for the subscription. Some users prefer terms like “Auto Ship” or “Auto Delivery” instead of “Subscribe & Save” for a more personalized touch.
Example: Use "Auto Ship and Save 18%" if you want to highlight a savings percentage. Note: This will only show on the front end experience.
5. Enable Strike-Through Pricing
Enable Compare at Price to show the original price next to the discounted subscription price.
This feature strikes out the original price, emphasizing the savings for subscribers. As you change between options, the pricing module will update to showcase the difference in savings.
6. Add Value Propositions
In the Value Propositions section, add compelling benefits to showcase the perks of subscribing and arrange them how you’d like by dragging the hamburger icon: Examples:
Save 18% on recurring orders
Additional 10% off on your first subscription purchase
Doorstep delivery every 30 days
Priority shipping fulfillment
“Anniversary gifts for loyalty
“Adjust, pause, or cancel anytime without hassle
7. Save and Preview
Click Save to confirm your settings.
Refresh the page and check the front-end shop experience to ensure all updates are displaying correctly.
8. Front-End View (Optional)
To view the subscription settings on the storefront:
Create or select a Video Shop or other shop setup.
Preview the product page to see the Auto Ship Option label, Most Popular badge, strike-through pricing, delivery options, and value propositions in action.
